Well you're doing better than me , 😊😀😂 thanks for the advice , I will try it , just moved and not had much luck with seeds this year .

[@LearnHow2]

Hi Alison. The secrets to successful seed germination are 1) Keep warm 2) Keep moist (but not wet) 3) Keep in a bright place (but not direct sunlight) when germinated. 4) Always use new compost preferably a type that is made for seedlings.

[@anhdnguyen2004]

Hello from Texas! Did you keep the tray of seeds indoor or inhouse after sowing them? And when do you start bringing them outside? Thank you!

[@LearnHow2]

Greetings from England! I keep them indoor until the risk of any frost has passed. I then leave outside in the day and bring in at night for a week. Following this I plant outside.

I really like your videos. I wish you mentioned your zone or general area and also mention when you are starting them. I could then calculated and get an idea of when to plant in my area/zone.

[@LearnHow2]

Thank you for your appreciation. I cannot give specific zone advice as people from all around the world watch these videos and it would be impossible to cover all areas. However I do advise to look at your seed packet for planting times as this will be tailored to your zone. Good luck with your growing.

[@nbeizaie]

@@LearnHow2 Yes, I understand that you can't advise on all zones but if you mention your zone, people can make the calculation in their mind to get a rough idea about their own zone. Anyway, enjoying your videos so good luck to you as well :)

[@bellabarlow1985]

great would be good to know when you start sowing and time frames from seed to picking . is there any feeding when in the ground. when you say keeping seedlings after leaf form and transfer warm are they in a glass house , in the middle of summer, or heat mat.

[@LearnHow2]

Hi Bella. I sowed indoors mid March, put the pots out in the day for a week when the danger of any frost had passed and brought in at night. Then planted in the ground but no feeding given thereafter. If your soil is devoid of nutrients it would be best to feed every couple of weeks.

[@Trakehner20]

I was wanting to winter sow seeds in a container outdoors this year, do you think it will work for these? I've never done it, but seems to work for some seeds.

What type of compost do you use? I used special seed compost & it was too fine & compacted, they failed. When I used normal compost twiggy, lumpier I had 90% success.
